    The Architect of R&B: Troy Taylor on TTU, Whitney, Aretha, Tyrese, and Why Artists Never Say "Thank You"

    Listen on your favorite podcast service: https://pods.to/wesoundcrazy Crazy Crew, join our We Sound Crazy list: https://wesoundcrazy.ffm.to/jointhewesoundcrazy-emailandsms.OYD Stream songs from the episode on our official We Sound Crazy playlists: https://lnkfi.re/8I8Drkfz In this episode of We Sound Crazy, the crew welcomes the legendary Troy Taylor, a "vocal mastermind" and multi-platinum producer whose influence has shaped the landscape of R&B for over three decades. From recording holiday classics with Whitney Houston to witnessing the unparalleled professionalism of Aretha Franklin in her own dining room, Taylor shares the kind of "backstage pass" stories that only a true industry titan could tell. As a mentor to host Claude Kelly and a key architect in the careers of icons like Boyz II Men and Tyrese, his presence on the show is more than just a guest appearance—it’s a deep-dive masterclass into the art of vocal production and the staying power required to remain a "GOAT" in an ever-changing industry. Beyond the Grammy and Dove Awards, Taylor gets candid about the gritty reality of artist development, reflecting on his pivotal role in transforming a 17-year-old Trey Songz into a global superstar and the often "thankless" nature of a business fueled by ego and politics. He offers an inspiring look at the resilience required to stay as "giddy" about producing today as he was when he started, even after weathering thirty-six years of industry disappointments. Whether he’s discussing the "silent prayer" he holds for his former students or his philosophy on the "one person" every artist needs to listen to, Taylor proves exactly why he remains a cornerstone of the culture and a permanent fixture in the R&B hall of fame.  We Sound Crazy is your backstage pass to all things music and culture.

Known to many as "The Pen," Garrett steps into the studio to share the stories behind the soundtracks of our lives. From his early days growing up in Europe to his deep roots in The Swats (Southwest Atlanta), Sean discusses how his unique perspective helped him craft era-defining hits for icons like Usher, Beyoncé, and Chris Brown. The conversation dives into the origin stories of some of music's biggest records, including the high-stakes session that birthed Usher’s "Yeah!" and the strategic genius behind Mario’s "Break Up." Sean opens up about his unique "lending" philosophy—the art of giving his best work to other artists to ensure a musical legacy that lives forever. He also shares rare insights into his time working with Destiny’s Child and Beyoncé, describing the intentionality and boundary-breaking energy that fueled the B-Day era. The energy in the room hits a fever pitch as the crew engages in a spirited debate over the "Vocal Bible" title, with Sean passionately defending Brandy’s unmatched influence as a stylist and trendsetter. Beyond the hits, Sean reflects on the evolution of the music business, his recent life-changing travels through Africa, and his experience working with Michael Jackson during the final year of the King of Pop’s life. Closing out with a powerful message on mentorship and the importance of hits as a source of human inspiration, Sean reminds the Crazy Crew that his journey is far from over. Whether he’s discussing the technicalities of a vocal arrangement or the "magic" of a studio session, this episode is an essential masterclass in artistry and staying power.

Raheem shares vivid behind-the-scenes stories, from his early days as Ginuwine’s prodigy to his current status as a pioneer in the direct-to-consumer market through platforms like Even.biz. He dives deep into the philosophy of his live performances—including the viral, water-pouring "Splash Gordon" persona—emphasizing that true showmanship requires being a perpetual student of the craft and putting in the "10,000 hours" necessary to master the stage. His discussion on independence serves as a masterclass for modern artists, as he explains how consistency and a "borderline delusional" self-belief allowed him to bypass traditional industry gatekeepers and maintain a loyal fanbase that continues to support his prolific output. The conversation takes an emotional and nostalgic turn as Raheem pays tribute to the late, legendary producer Chucky Thompson, crediting him with architecting the iconic Bad Boy sound and reminiscing about their work together on the classic anthem "Woman." He reveals the high-stakes origins of that track, noting how a blunt challenge from his A&R regarding the lack of a "sophomore anthem" led to the song’s creation in just 72 hours—a record that eventually became a personal favorite of the late Aretha Franklin. Looking toward the future, Raheem expresses his excitement for the upcoming "Say Yes" tour alongside Floetry and Teedra Moses, describing the collaboration as a celebration of R&B evolution and genuine friendship. Beyond the music, he highlights his philanthropic efforts through the Love Life Foundation and his advocacy for HIV awareness and mental health, proving that his enduring legacy is built as much on community impact as it is on his smooth, chart-topping hits.

Actor, producer, music artist, and label CEO Julian Horton joins hosts Claude Kelly, Chuck Harmony, Phil Thornton, and Tamone Bacon for an unfiltered conversation about his meteoric rise and the discipline required to juggle life at a high vibration. While the world recognizes him as the magnetic "Roy" from Tyler Perry’s global Netflix sensation Beauty in Black, Julian reveals to the guys that his heart has always been in the music, working tirelessly behind the scenes to build his own empire. The transition from the screen to the studio isn't as seamless as it looks, and Julian gets candid with the crew about the "yield" in the acting industry and why he’s currently pouring his energy into his music persona, J-12. As the CEO of TMO (The Most Original) Music Group, he is navigating the saturated digital landscape with a focus on cinematic, hard-hitting production. He opens up about the financial and creative hurdles of producing his high-budget music video for "Gone Head Busted" and the realization that even a global acting platform requires a new level of "spamming" and creativity to get people to truly listen. Success for Julian isn't just a solo mission; it’s a family legacy. With actor Donald Faison as a cousin and a father who ran with the legendary Organized Noize and the Dungeon Family, Julian was born into the game. He shares the "win on your own merit" wisdom he received from Faison and how seeing Black excellence up close from a young age made his current reality feel possible long before the cameras started rolling. This deep-rooted perspective is what keeps him grounded, even as his face appears on billboards across the country. We Sound Crazy is your backstage pass to all things music and culture.

Sidora reflects on the high-pressure origins of her career, sharing "nerve-wracking" memories of auditioning for Step Up and receiving direct, surgical notes from the legendary Clive Davis on her ad-libs. She speaks with profound pride about her "top-notch" casting as T-Boz in the TLC biopic, Crazy Sexy Cool, describing how she so thoroughly embodied the role that her own family didn't recognize her on set. Drew joins the We Sound Crazy hosts for a nostalgic and revelatory We Looked Crazy segment, where they dive into the archives to reflect on her early press images. Looking back at her "boots with the fur" and chandelier earrings from her days on That's So Raven and Step Up, Drew candidly critiques her past style while celebrating the grit it took to navigate the industry as a young actress auditioning against musical heavyweights. This spirit of resilience carries into her current chapter on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, where she discusses the show’s recent "reset" that shifted away from the shadow of the OGs toward more authentic, sisterly bonds. Drew details her meaningful reconciliation with Porsha Williams—a move that has blossomed into a collaborative business venture with their hair and wig lines—and explains how she now approaches the franchise with an "unbothered" mindset, prioritizing vulnerability over manufactured drama. Beyond the screen, Drew is firmly reclaiming her musical roots, moving from the raw accountability of her album I Did It To Me to a second project currently in development that honors her Chicago heritage with house music influences and soul-stirring gospel features. With an official tour launch on the horizon, Sidora makes it clear that she is no longer just a "girl from a movie," but a seasoned veteran using every platform to tell her own story on her own terms.

Blige Strength of a Woman Tour" with special guest Mario, highlighting the amazing experience and the powerful moment of performing "You Should Let Me Love You" with Mario for the first time.  Ne-Yo delves into his early career, including his challenging experience with Columbia Records and the creative freedom he found at Def Jam under L.A. Reid, which shaped his debut album.   He discusses the evolution of R&B, the importance of male vulnerability in songwriting, and how it is a subject matter he still wishes to explore in his music. He and Chuck Harmony recount the serendipitous story of their first collaboration, which sparked Harmony's career and led to Ne-Yo writing hits for Céline Dion, Mary J. Blige, and Janet Jackson in a single night!  Ne-Yo also shares the creation process behind his own hits like "So Sick" and "Closer," revealing how L.A. Reid strategically planned the release of "Stay" before "So Sick" as a "jab before the knockout punch."  He recounts the surprising origin of Beyoncé's "Flaws and All," initially intended for Britney Spears, and how Rihanna’s "Good Girl Gone Bad" album also came from songs originally written for Britney.  Ne-Yo shares his desire to collaborate with Stevie Wonder, who, along with Michael Jackson, influenced his acceptance of his own voice.  He also tells the wild story of his group Envy's disastrous performance on Showtime at the Apollo.  Finally, Ne-Yo addresses his personal life, discussing his decision to be open about his polyamorous relationships and offering candid advice on honesty and living authentically.  This is one for the books!
